s> Hello,

s> I am desperetely trying to play one avi video file which plays on all the 
s> windoZe systems. I found out that redhat 7.2 doesnt have any video player by 
s> default. I tried installing a player caller " avifile"  hmm   but that never 
s> happens the installation fails witha error like 

s> error: failed dependencies:
s>         libac3.so.0   is needed by avifile-0.6-0.20010809.1
s>         libasound.so.1   is needed by avifile-0.6-0.20010809.1
s>         libstdc++.so.2.10   is needed by avifile-0.6-0.20010809.1
s>         ac3dec   is needed by avifile-0.6-0.20010809.1
s>         alsa-lib   is needed by avifile-0.6-0.20010809.1


s> I tried installing individual packages  but that too didnt work. I couldnt 
s> find out where i can get these lib*.*

s> Can any one please tell me how to install a movie player without much trouble 
s> of finding out some strange dependencies..  or is there any way in which the 
s> rpm gets installed by selecting and installing the dependencies by itself 
s> instead of prompting me to install everything.

Check out Xine... http://xine.sourceforge.net/

It is well documented and will also point you to where you can download the
drivers for viewing avi and Divx;)

You can also go to http://freshrpms.net/ to get RPMS.

You may still run into dependencies, but it is all according to what you
have already installed.

Have fun,
